Come on jaycey you can do better than that.

Really John I thought you knew me better.

Last month it took me 4 hours attempting a steak & kidney pie (& 2 minutes to bin it).

Then another 3 days to re-paint & fumigate the kitchen.

Plus my wife says that if something takes longer to cook than to eat then it’s a waste of time. The only upside is that we’ve probably got the cleanest oven in Europe!

I’m doomed

We chose to have home made pizza using Tortilla wraps dressed with a tomato sauce, thin chorizo slices, Olives, peppers, ham and topped with manchego cheese, very tasty considering I have never been a pizza fan.

Congratulations on your wedding anniversary Steve. We've managed 40 years ! Why did you take the skin off the chicken Martin. Was it to crisp it up separately ? Lamb shanks and cauliflower cheese, left over from the Morison's Valentines offer. Both good, Shredded red and green cabbage with onions cooked in butter. Plain mashed potatoes.

Cod lions, covered in egg and sour dough breadcrumbs, then fried. Morrison's oven chips, peas and shredded cabbage.

Hills, we have always removed the skin from a roast chicken prior to carving as it is extremely fatty, its worked for Linsey but not me sadly, it went back in the oven for 5 mins to crisp as a treat for me and her dad, small things eh !

Last night we had Aldi battered cod with oven chips mushy peas and Asda granulated curry, the fish wasn't the best, the chips and peas were fine and the curry sauce was like slightly spiced gravy. When you just fancy something quick on a busy day but it really didn't work, back to proper cooking tonight.

I went down a similar route last night. Brought a sachet of Katsu Curry stir fry sauce from the veg section in Aldi, but instead of doing a stir fry, I used it as a sauce over some pan fried cod, courgettes & jasmine rice.

Enjoyed the sauce & will buy it again. Still have a coconut & lemongrass one that I brought at the same time, which again I will probably use over cod.

Humongous pork rib still attached to the belly marinaded in a spicy mix Linsey knocked up and slow cooked for 10 hours, and served with a baked potato and a bottle of Asti for me and a couple of Gin Lane 1751 Gin and Tonics.

Got a raging thirst now

I sure would Enoch. I remember those vast cabbages we bought in the market. So big I used to cut them in half and share with a neighbour ! The smaller ones were tightly packed but the very big ones were full of air. Lovely though !! Cheap dinner of penne with bacon and various vegetables. Not exciting and Bill didn't eat the Penne. Instead had vast amounts of cheese n biscuits just to annoy me !
